Now I know why so much appreciation for SCO , I complete forgot that you are 
both partners
and SCO promotes your software and so are you .

SCO PROVIDES EXCLUSIVE INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION FOR MICROLITE CORPORATION

SCO and Microlite agreement provides SCO with all distribution of Microlite 
BackupEDGE for OpenServer and UnixWare outside of North America


They'll drop that distribution if you talk bad about them.

:-)

Remember, I love BackupEDGE for both platforms, and it is not like I am
anti-SCO. But more companies are switching/already to Linux (i.e. military, 
governments, EU, China,etc). The good thing is that Microlite supports them 
both (2 thumps up!).
